In the Black Hills of South Dakota is Allen's Rocket Motel. The
name of the sign hearkens back to
the space age era of the 50's and 60's.

To the right is another angle of the Rocket Motel marquee.

This old roadside sign for the Stardust Motel is located
in El Dorado, KS. This is a fine example of a sign from the mid-century,
back when landing on the moon was all the rage.

The Glancy Motel is a famous Route 66 landmark in Clinton, OK.
Located next to the former site of Pop Hicks Restaurant (in background

open for business.

A Route 66 motel treasure, The Glancy Motor Hotel in
Clinton, OK still features its huge marquee. Unfortunately, the feeling
from the owner is that business has been tight. With the loss of the Pop
Hicks Restaurant next door a few years ago, Route 66 can't afford to lose
another beacon of the Mother Road.
